Abstract :
A stochastic MIMO radio channel considering (i) polarization diversity and (ii) unbalanced branch power ratio (BPR) is being validated by comparing Monte-Carlo simulations and experimental results using the eigenanalysis as benchmark. Based on results generated by the model, the influence of the BPR on the power gain of the parallel subchannels is presented.
